It's not like Annie gives no counterplay to Q or W apart from "not be in range", duh. At least with the countdown you can use shields or MR buffs to reduce its damage. If they said "his range is too great and provides great zoning" that'd be something else.

About armour vs HP, it's been calculated that against mostly physical damage armour > HP at level 2 or something like that.


I am also somewhat dubious of the reasoning even if I do somewhat see the point. Most 'skill shots' on top tier mids cannot be dodged by any means other than flash when used well. Ziggs Q has 1700 missile speed so it is essentially point and click damage at 850 range with the added bonus of 1300 range slow bounce utility. In many ways skill shots are more powerful because you can use them into fog of war or on invisible targets.

Maybe the possibility of missing due to the incompetence of an ability user is held in equal regard to counterplay from the target when it comes to balance. I dunno, Im not in the business of game development.

Pretty much.

I guess the counterplay to Veigar stun into 1 combo is player incompetence.
Same with someone like Malzahar.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Ok, this just in:
The new SotAG can get bugged in a way where the conservation stacks get stuck at 69.
Really Riot.

Still getting 40 or less, but the tooltip above your QWER skills is stuck at 69.

Edit: Apparently both the tooltips of SotAG and Quill Coat are bugged in multiple ways.

You do %health damage to anything attacking you, while regenerating as much as if you were popping pots while doing the camps.
Butcher doesn't do much because in the early game it's "+30% damage on that spell doing 120 of the monster's 300 HP" and a few minutes later it's "+30% damage on that spell doing 150 of the monster's 600 HP": you don't build any damage and as such the camps' health increases faster than you gain damage from levels.
So not only do your main damage increase faster because it scales off of the monsters' HP (and thus stays relevant till they've got so much HP they pass the cap, which won't happen soon), but you can use more spells because you have more mana, and you waste less time using your weak autos on the monsters your AoE can't clear because you don't need to hit them to damage them: it works on anything attacking you.

The regeneration part was weak too because it was tied to your damage: if you did more damage you regenerated more, but if it stayed constant (usually the case for tanky junglers) then you had to burn more mana/HP to deal with the camps' HP scaling, making you take longer to clear them on top of using more ressources.
Now the regeneration is very high, and you don't need it as much because the new passive doesn't need you to spend so much resources on the camp.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

If i recall correctly, tanky supporty junglers were popular at that point due to the low income. Maokai and Nautilus come to mind.

ok cause i'm arguing with this guy because he thinks lee sin has been the no.1 jungler since season 2 when it's obviously not true. thanks.

well according to leaguepedia stats, he wasnt even in the top 3 for junglers at all for season 3 LCS. Idk about solo queue pick rate, those stats are impossible for me to find. But it seems like after they nerfed aegis a long ass time ago that's where lee sin suddenly became one of the top 3 champion picks.

The damage from SotAG might be ok if you clear extremely slowly. If a monster has 1,500 health, you'd need to do 250 damage over 3 seconds for butcher to be worth more. Definite nerf for a champion like Mundo, but maybe someone like Rammus could be a bit faster with this.

Cumulatively Lee clearly has been no 1 over that time. There were so many op releases and a few op reworks so always being number 1 would be impossible.
